Ladies -- thank you for your helpful replies. I came to this obsession late(r) in life...and so perhaps am trying to make up for lost time. I live a casual, tropical lifestyle of linens and cottons and jeans, so my clothes are not expensive; it's the handbag that IS the look. For instance, jeans, a t-shirt, and my LV Blue Epi Petit Noe... Or black pants & top with my Celine Boogie... My handbags empower and delight me. I have never had an obession before...so I am fascinated that I have become obessed! with my handbags! I just can't believe it! Perhaps another thing is that I live in a place where you can't buy anything. Do you know what "nothing" means? Zero. Nada. Nor can I have things mailed to me here in Mexico. So, I shop online and save up my purchases for when I visit the States. I like the idea of buying it, taking it home and "having" it, but then returning it. I've owned several handbags this way and sated myself. Like I thought I wanted a Mulberry Roxanne, but after I owned it for 5 minutes, I was thrilled to return it. Anyway, y'all are swell! Thanks!
